Founder

Jordan Gilbert

The founder behind Dacros: accountable for the technology, and for the security standard your business is held to.

Who I am

The person accountable for your technology

Jordan Gilbert founded TicketWave HQ Ltd, the professional-services company Dacros is a trading name of. He has been building on the web since 2006, and sets the engineering and security standard across the practices he runs.

Dacros is where that discipline is pointed at business IT and cyber security. Enterprise habits, security by default, monitoring, documentation and evidence, sized and priced to the business you actually run: the same person who builds and secures serious software looks after your day to day.

It is not theory. When we wrote up what we found auditing our own infrastructure, that was Dacros holding its own systems to the standard we hold yours to.

How we work

Plain English, EU-first, evidence over promises

Security-first by default, explained without jargon, with UK and EU data residency and an honest answer about where your data lives. The guide library is written and checked to that standard, and the free review applies it to your business.

You should be able to check who you are trusting with your technology before you trust them with it. That is the whole reason this page and the credentials register exist.

Talk to the person who is accountable

Not a sales team, and not a callback queue. Book the free review, or reach Jordan directly on any of these.
